  • The Falkland Islands & Their Adjacent Maritime Area
    International Boundaries Research Unit MARITIME BRIEFING Volume 2 Number 3 The Falkland Islands and their Adjacent Maritime Area Patrick Armstrong and Vivian Forbes Maritime Briefing Volume 2 Number 3 ISBN 1-897643-26-8 1997 The Falkland Islands and their Adjacent Maritime Area by Patrick Armstrong and Vivian Forbes Edited by Clive Schofield International Boundaries Research Unit Department of Geography University of Durham South Road Durham DH1 3LE UK Tel: UK + 44 (0) 191 334 1961 Fax: UK +44 (0) 191 334 1962 E-mail: [email protected] www: http://www-ibru.dur.ac.uk The Authors Patrick Armstrong teaches biogeography and environmental management in the Geography Department of the University of Western Australia. He also cooperates with a colleague from that University’s Law School in the teaching of a course in environmental law. He has had a long interest in remote islands, and has written extensively on this subject, and on the life and work of the nineteenth century naturalist Charles Darwin, another devotee of islands. Viv Forbes is a cartographer, map curator and marine geographer based at the University of Western Australia. His initial career was with the Merchant Navy, and it was with them that he spent many years sailing the waters around Australia, East and Southeast Asia. He is the author of a number of publications on maritime boundaries, particularly those of the Indian Ocean region. Acknowledgements Travel to the Falkland Islands for the first author was supported by a grant from the National Geographic Society Committee for Research and Exploration. Part of the material in this Briefing was presented as a paper at the 4th International Boundaries Conference, IBRU, Durham, July 1996; travel by PHA to this conference was supported by the Faculty of Science of the University of Western Australia.

  • A Outra Guerra Do Fim Do Mundo As Malvinas E “Redemocratização” Da a Mérica Do Sul
    $RXWUDJXHUUDGR¿PGRPXQGR 6HomR(VSHFLDO A OUTRA GUERRA DO FIM DO MUNDO AS MALVINAS E “REDEMOCRATIZAÇÃO” DA A MÉRICA DO SUL Osvaldo Coggiola 1. QUESTÃO NACIONAL, MILITARISMO, MALVINAS Entre inícios de abril e meados de junho de 1982 teve lugar o enfrentamento militar entre Argentina e Inglaterra (apoiada pelos EUA) pela posse e soberania das Ilhas Malvinas, ocupadas por tropas argentinas a 2 de abril de 1982. Depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial, o das Malvinas foi um dos conitos em que mais perto se esteve do uso de armas atômicas, carregadas pela frota inglesa ao Atlântico Sul para seu eventual uso contra o território continental argentino. Na guerra, as forças armadas argentinas usaram 14.200 soldados; o Reino Unido, 29.700, com armamento e apoio logístico muito superior. O saldo nal da guerra foi a recuperação do arquipélago pelo Reino Unido e a morte de 650 soldados argentinos, além de 1068 feridos (muitos de gravidade) e de 11.313 prisioneiros; de 255 soldados britânicos, e de três civis das ilhas, mortos, além de 777 feridos. Na década posterior à guerra, houve aproximadamente 350 suicídios de ex-combatentes argentinos, reduzidos na sua maioria a uma situação de miséria social; os suicídios de ex soldados ingleses atingiram a soma de 264. O cenário bélico, incluída a ilusão da ditadura argentina de recuperar as ilhas pela via do enfrentamento (ou da ameaça) militar convencional, foi preparado no contexto da militarização das economias e das sociedades sul-americanas, no período dominado pelas ditaduras militares. Entre 1960 e 1978 o PIB dos países do Terceiro Mundo crescera a um ritmo médio de 2,7% anual, enquanto que os gastos militares nesses mesmos países cresceram com um ritmo do 4,2% anual.

  • In Several Places. Words Normally Capitalised Have Been Left As Written, Eg
    VOYAGE AROUND THE WORLD. Note on this digital version. I came to read the journal of Bougainville’s voyage, in the original French, through my passion for things maritime and ancient. To confirm (or otherwise) that I had correctly understood some of the 18th century French, I looked for a translation in English. I found the following one, made in about 1772, by one John Reinhold Forster, F. A. S. Unfortunately, the digital version available had not come through the optical character recognition process very well. In places it was unreadable, hence this transcription. In so doing, the only changes I have made are: a) The old form of using f for s, I have changed thus failing becomes sailing. b) The outmoded ligatures and have been replaced with standard font. c) Repeated words that were obviously due to typesetting errors, have been removed. All spelling inconsistencies have been retained, even where the same word is spelt differently in several places. Words normally capitalised have been left as written, eg. captain Wallace. The rather erratic punctuation that is more, I suspect, the responsibility of the translator than of the author, remains unchanged. Neither the spelling nor the punctuation, however, should cause the modern reader any real difficulty. The side notes of the original have been retained and have been inserted into the text in contrasting bold type, separated, above and below, by a line space. The footnotes added by Reinhold Forster are included at the bottom of each page, to which they refer, in contrasting typeface. In this translation several things struck me as requiring some comment or redress: a) Reinhold Forster’s interpretation of what is written does not invariably convey what Bourgainville intended to be understood.
